Land OwnerBC Parks
A mostly non technical single track climb trail with some double track to get you almost all the way to the top of the network. Mostly well shaded, the trail travels through both desert scrub and thick forest and provides excellent views of Osoyoos Lake. Has some sustained steepish climbs and one steep set of black diamond level switchbacks infamously named the "Chrisbacks" that make for a fun challenge or an easy push. Overall blue difficulty for the way up or green for the down. If descending, remember to yield to climbers and hikers
Access Info

New climb trail signage is a nice touch. Thanks for the work! Bottom half has been trimmed, top half is pretty overgrown

Road Upside Down up and then down the blacks back to the car. Trails were fun but you there is very little signage to mark the trails and had to keep double checking trail forks and sometimes had to turn around. The red trails I think are no longer ridden. All and all a fun ride on my acoustic bike.

Unfortunately this whole area was burned in a recent forest fire. Many trees down and trail is very hard to follow in places. 1/10 condition, would not recommend until a rebuild can happen. Likely in the wet season.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
